The Hong Kong play stars two actors who are part of Back to Back Theatre Groups’s permanent ensemble and two local Hong Kong actors will perform the leading roles.

The play will unfold amidst the high volume pedestrian traffic of Taikoo Place, where each audience member will be given a set of headphones and experience an intensely personal drama being played out somewhere in the crowd.
